Controlled-rate freezing with BIOFREEZE®

Cryotechnology for reproductive medicine

Controlled-rate freezing is a vital step in the cryopreservation of biological samples. It is used when cells, stem cells, tissue samples, or other sensitive materials require gentle freezing.

With BIOFREEZE®, Consarctic provides high-performance controlled rate freezers for this application. The devices operate with a defined freezing rate, precise temperature control, and flexible freezing programs.

This allows samples to be safely prepared for subsequent storage, while making the freezing process more predictable, repeatable, and documentable.

High process reliability for cryopreservation and long-term stability

Controlled-rate freezing solution explained

When freezing biological samples, it is not just the final temperature that counts. The way the temperature drops is also crucial, as this progression affects the quality of the sample.

If a sample freezes too quickly or unevenly, it can become stressed. The formation of unwanted ice crystals is particularly critical, as these can damage cell structures and complicate the subsequent use of the sample.

A controlled rate freezer manages the freezing process according to a defined program. The temperature does not drop randomly; it follows a set sequence.

This is especially important for sensitive cell materials, including cells, stem cells, tissue samples, or samples from reproductive medicine. The process can be adapted to the specific material.

For laboratories, this offers clear advantages: freezing processes become more comparable, samples can be prepared more securely, and internal standards are easier to maintain.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions about controlled-rate freezing with BIOFREEZE®

What does controlled-rate freezing mean?

Controlled-rate freezing means that biological samples are frozen according to a defined temperature profile. The temperature does not drop randomly, but in a controlled manner.

What is a controlled-rate freezer?

A controlled-rate freezer is a device that allows for a regulated freezing rate. It helps to freeze biological samples uniformly and reproducibly.

Why is the freezing rate important?

The freezing rate influences how water and dissolved components behave during the freezing process. An appropriate freezing rate can help treat cellular material more gently.

Which samples are suitable for controlled-rate freezing?

Controlled-rate freezing is suitable for cells, stem cells, tissue samples, and other biological materials. The exact procedure depends on the sample and the specific protocol.

What are the benefits of BIOFREEZE®?

BIOFREEZE® offers defined freezing rates, flexible programs, and precise temperature control. This makes freezing processes easier to plan, replicate, and document.
